The Lilliputian Things

Well, the student from the other day who told me that I looked similar I hated my life commented over again on my appearance today.  When I greeted him earlier dejeuner today, he noted that I was rattling smiling today.  During my interview for this job, the superintendent told me non to smiling until Christmas.  I'm glad I didn't follow his advice because I genuinely believe that my students demand to encounter me smile.  My students demand to encounter that I desire to locomote doing this job, that I desire to locomote where I am at the moment.

Today's post service is virtually roughly of the picayune things I've been doing assistance convey a smiling dorsum to my face.

As business office of my birthday gift, my sis gave me a magnetic Christmas tree, consummate alongside ornaments.  I originally assumed that it was to hang on my refrigerator, but she suggested that I position it upwardly inwards my classroom.  Most students don't fifty-fifty let on it.  But, I dearest it.  Of course, roughly students similar to rearrange it as well as house the packages on transcend of the tree...

My Classroom Christmas Tree
I've likewise been making a concerted endeavor to add together memories to my retentiveness jar.  I ran across this idea on Pinterest this summer, as well as I decided I needed to brand 1 for my ain classroom.  When I asked my mom for a jounce that would work, she gave me a Mr. Peanut jar.

It sets past times my desk, as well as whenever a students says something funny, profound, or somewhere inwards between, I write it downward on a post-it note, plication it up, as well as position it inwards the jar.  This jounce is total of the things that brand me dearest my job.  But these are the exact same things that are ofttimes forgotten or overlooked when reflecting dorsum on my day.  My hear tends to focus its attending on that affair that didn't become then good instead of the myriad of other daily events.

I call upwardly my conception is to read these at the halt of my kickoff yr of teaching.  I can't hold off to read dorsum over all of these memories as well as relive my kickoff yr of teaching.

I used to mag a lot, but I merely haven't had the fourth dimension of late.  Basically, if it doesn't learn written hither or jotted downward on a post-it complaint as well as stuck inwards my jar, it doesn't learn written down.
